Not what I said at all. I've said hundreds of times on this forum I'm pro-gun and not for prohibition of guns, but your mind can't grasp a rational argument that involves tighter gun laws make sense. To you it is either the wild west or North Korea, with nothing in between.
No moron, I have frequently stated what I believe...
1) if you use a gun to commit an actual crime, rape, robbery or murder, you go to prison for 30 years.
2) if you are a violent felon who is caught with a gun, you go to jail for 30 years.
Those two items are all we need to deal with actual gun criminals...until people like you let them out.
Putting people in jail for 30 years isn't going to solve gun crime.
If you studied this you'd know that.
Link to back that up?
The United States has over 2.1 million people in prison... and the number is growing. The next closest is China at 1.6 million.
The U.S. has a total population of around 325 million... China is 1.4 BILLION.
Locking people up in jail and throwing away the key isn't working, and hasn't for several years. All it does is cause more problems, including an endless cycle of younger generations following the foot steps of their parents into jail.
In order to solve the issue, you have to go further into the source of the problem... being proactive rather than reactive. You educate people better, you give more help with mental illness and substance abuse, and provide other programs to help people generate their own ability to live.
